Coach Carroll Answers Questions Via Twitter

Last month, Pete Carroll intrigued Twitter followers by listing several “clues” as to who the Seahawks would select in the NFL Draft.

Each new clue was a song title, and most followers were puzzled with the ambiguity and mystery that developed with each new tweet. Whether Carroll was seriously revealing Seattle’s draft strategy or just fooling around on Twitter is unknown, but Seattle’s newest head coach definitely knows how to entertain on social media.

Earlier this afternoon, Carroll offered his followers a new opportunity:

"who’s got questions? gonna answer some for the next few minutes… fire away!"

Here is a dialogue of the ensuing question and answer session:
